KABUL, Aug. 2 (Xinhua) -- Afghanistan's Ministry of Economy has implemented 2,194 development projects across the country in the past one year, ministry spokesperson Abdul Rahman Habib has said.

The projects were implemented in the health, agriculture, transportation, and energy sectors, with job opportunities created for more than 300,000 people, Habib told a government meeting held Thursday.

"This year, we're considering more development plans," Habib said, adding that about 1,338 public utility projects worth 1.8 billion U.S. dollars are ongoing across the Central Asian country.
